GARDNER — The drivers of two pickup trucks were injured in an accident Thursday afternoon at Eaton and Green streets.

Police Sgt. Richard Braks said drivers of a Subaru mini pickup truck and a GMC four-wheel-drive pickup were taken to Heywood Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries after the collision, which left one vehicle flipped over and the other on top of it. The names of the drivers were not available Thursday night.

Sgt. Braks said the GMC pickup was headed north on Green Street when the Subaru failed to stop at a stop sign on Eaton Street. The Subaru crossed Green Street, was struck in the driver's door by the GMC truck and rolled over onto its roof. The GMC came to a halt upright on top of the Subaru.

Police are continuing to investigate. Sgt. Braks said charges are being considered against one of the drivers.
